Interesting Fact
Majority of people think that they have growth mindset especially in big corporations.
According to psychologist Carol Dwek as many as 40% of students have a fixed versus growth mindset here is the link to the article if you want to learn more https://www.mindsetworks.com/science/
In my experience the truth is majority of people have fixed mindset. Our fixed ideas are our unconscious beliefs, perceptions that we hold.
The only way you can change your fixed mindset to growth is by asking right questions and bringing your unconscious beliefs to your conscious awareness. This can be uncomfortable?but so much rewarding!
Neuroplasticity is any change in neuronal form or function, and this underlies the lifelong ability to learn and adapt. Neuroplasticity proves that your brain structure is not fixed, It doesn’t make sense to view yourself ( your abilities personal or relationship) as being fixed!
If you think you have growth mindset
Can you absolutely know that you have growth mindset in all arrears of your life?
How do you sabotage yourself or getting in your way ?
You can finish the sentence – I can’t expand to my full potential because______________________
?
If you are honest, you will find a lot of hidden unconscious beliefs, in my personal experience and also people I was working with the most common unconscious belief people have?I’m not good enough , I’m not worthy.
You may think you are worthy on your conscious level but even most successful people that have all the material things they ever wanted couldn’t reach that level of happiness, because?the common dominators is I’m not good enough , this goes usually to your childhood experiences and we all have our story that we created in our mind when we were little children and unconsciously if not dealt with on conscious level we still hold to our old story.
You can rewrite your story starting by I AM ENOUGH !
How much love and abundance am I willing to allow?
How am I getting in my own way ?
So what is the Plastic Paradox of our brain?
You can change your brain to growth mindset and also you can change your brain in the opposite way. Your brain is plastic it changes all the time, your brain feeds on your thoughts. Your mind controls your brain. Neuroplasticity is brain’s ability to modify, change, and adapt both structure and function throughout life time and in response to experience.
Majority of people think they can defeat emotions with logic. The truth is in my experience you can’t! You need to use stronger emotion for permanent change. You need to memorize that stronger emotion.
When you treat the cause the root of the problem you will treat at the same time multiple symptoms. The truth is that Majority of people do it the other way around they treat the symptoms whether it is weight loss, allergies, autoimmune conditions they try quick fix offered by our doctors that may help in a short period of time but never for a long period of time. And they got stuck in the rut with recurring problems for years or even until they die it just getting worse.
We often overestimate what will happen in one year and underestimate what will happen in 10 years.
You can’t heal until you Feel
You can’t fix something you don’t understand
?I was trying to fix my three autoimmune conditions for years but I didn’t understand the root of the cause I was treating the symptoms with exercise and vitamins, supplements, diets?and it didn’t work.?I became absolutely numb with my feeling I was so scared to look at them and feel them . That was the fear of my suppressed and repressed feelings that was holding me back for many years.
One day someone provoke my thinking and I understood that if I’m not going to Feel that I’m worthy that I’m Enough and take actions nothing will change. I got scared what my life is going to look like when my daughter is 20 and out of the house , what my life will look like when I’m 60.
I went 20 years ahead and couldn’t see the picture I got scarred and made a firm decision that I’m going to fix myself from inside out!
And I did,?looking at your feelings is less scary that you think and when you understand who you are you lose your fear!
You are not your body
You are not the numbers on your bank account

You are not the numbers on your scale
You are not your title
You are not the label of your conditions
You are not the tag price of?your dress, your house or your car
You are spiritual being full of untapped potential and you have the body. Your mind controls your brain and your body. You have much power then you think you have.
YOU ARE ENOUGH ! Remember those three powerful words they will change your life.
All your gifts are hidden under your?fears. Fear of shame, fear of losing, fear of failure , fear of feeling, fear of letting go resistance to receive good things the list can go long ….
Every life experience, no matter how “tragic”, contains a hidden lesson. When we discover and acknowledge the hidden gift that is there a healing takes place.
Life events are opportunities to grow, expand, experience and develop. If you are sick it is a feedback that you are out of integrity that you are not living by your highest values in life, you disconnected from you true self. And you have the choice what game you want to play, you can play the game of social idealism or you can listen to your heart. Our inner self always knows but majority of people live in ignorance following social idealism which is my experience is BS!
Psychoanalyst Carl Jung said that there is inborn drive in the unconscious mind towards wholeness, completeness, Joy , Happiness and realization of Self , and that unconscious mind will devise the way and means to bringing this about even if they are traumatic to the conscious?mind.
Jung also said that in the unconscious mind there was and aspect of ourselves called “ The Shadow” . The Shadow is all the repressed thoughts, feelings and concepts about ourselves that we don’t want to face. When those suppressed and repressed feelings, fixed beliefs and thoughts brought to our conscious awareness, acknowledged, observed and reconceptualized then they no longer control us we are not living in your Shadows anymore.
Doesn’t matter how successful you are , you are going to have at least one barriers one fixed mindset , limiting belief that is holding you back.
When Fear of the past is healed Fear of the future disappears.
Remember that your words are powerful, and you mind is always listening. Every word you say becomes a blueprint that our mind and body work to meet and turn into reality.
When you love yourself your life is extraordinary.
?Why majority of people never achieve their goals ?
The main issue if you don’t have what you want that means you don’t want it. You may want it on conscious level but on deep unconscious level there is going to be blind spot, limiting belief that will keep you in your comfort zone stuck forever. Majority of people give up saying it is too hard.
I will give you tool called “ Power of Yet “
Whenever you find yourself being negative about your abilities , rephrase the statement to add ‘’Not Yet”
Whenever you hear someone else being negative about your abilities, repeat the statement back to them add “Not Yet”
And reaffirm to yourself I can do it “I Am Enough”
Doing this is good but understand if you are not willing to bring your fixed mindset your limiting beliefs, repressed and suppressed feeling to your conscious awareness positive affirmation and thinking is not going to help.
Just imagine you never wash your hair , you never shower but you put clean close and tones of perfume every day.
Now think how would you feel – dirty , itchy , smelly.
Exactly the same is with your unconscious suppressed and repressed feelings and beliefs if you don’t clean your mental junk doesn’t matter how hard you will try , how many positive affirmations you will use every day you will never live to your full potential , life events will always put you out of balance you won’t be able to experience free, happy and fulfilled life something that we all want so much.
You have the power to choose, it is your choice and your responsibility . You are creator of your life not the government, not events and circumstances . It is only YOU.
